Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the CBFA engine.
Engine CBFA is known for issues like carbon buildup on intake valves due to direct injection, causing rough idling and reduced performance. Diagnosis involves checking for misfires and performing a walnut blasting cleaning to remove deposits. Timing chain tensioner wear can cause rattling noises; inspect and replace tensioners as needed.
